Work In Progress

Submitted by webadmin on Tue, 08/03/2010 - 00:28

The work-in-progress (WiP) session, included in PerCom for the sixth year, gives its participants an opportunity to present and discuss early and emerging results and bring about novel research questions, approaches, and directions. The specific aim of the WiP session is to provide a forum for timely presentation, discussion and feedback for novel, controversial, and thought provoking ideas. All selected papers will be presented as posters in a special WiP conference session and included in PerCom workshop proceedings to be published by IEEE and included in the digital library.

Contributions are solicited in all areas of pervasive computing research and applications. Papers are expected to report on early or ongoing research on any aspect of pervasive computing and communications. Novel approaches and results are especially sought for as is ongoing experimentation.

Topics:

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

Innovative pervasive computing applications

Software engineering aspects of pervasive computing

Middleware services and agent technologies

Smart grid sensing, control and communications

Social and economics aspects of pervasive computing

Wearable systems

Ambient ecologies

Multimodal sensing and context for pervasive applications

Pervasive sensing, perception and semantic interpretation

Pervasive opportunistic communications and applications

Enabling technologies for pervasive systems (e.g., wireless BAN, PAN)

Positioning and tracking technologies

Virtual and immersive systems, cognitive pervasive architectures

Adaptive, autonomic and context-aware computing

Mobile/Wireless computing systems and services in pervasive computing

Energy-efficient and green pervasive computing

Communication architectures for pervasive computing

Ad hoc networks for pervasive communications

Sensors and RFID in pervasive systems

Social and economic models for pervasive systems

Submission Guidelines:

Authors are requested to submit original, unpublished manuscripts in standard IEEE proceedings format (two-column format with a 4-page limit including figures, tables, and references) in PDF format that include contact information of all the authors to the EDAS submission site.

The submitted manuscripts will be reviewed by the WiP Program Committee. The authors of accepted papers will present their work during the main conference in a special WiP poster session and must register for the conference. The papers of the WiP session will be published in the proceedings of the Eighth Annual IEEE International Conference on Pervasive Computing and Communications.

Poster Size: The minimum is 20" x 30" (508 mm x 763 mm) up to about 25% more in each dimension.
